Lana Waldrep, "Flats" 2010, Oil on canvas, 96 x 96 inches
The Page Bond Gallery (1625 West Main Street) will present paintings by recent MFA recipient Lana Waldrep. On view will be large paintings from her thesis exhibition as well as smaller earlier works. Waldrep's isolated landscapes of industrial matter, void of environmental references, liberate her audience to re-examine objects as pure form and shape.
Additionally, Summer Solstice, the annual summer group exhibition, will include painting, photography, sculpture and work on paper by gallery artists.
